VPT – expensive parser functions

edit

Hi, IP 2804: don't know with your dynamic IP if you will ever see this, but I *did* see your reply at WP:VPT#PAGESIZE as inexpensive alternative to #ifexist parser function, and even though it was very fleeting, I appreciate the effort! Cheers, Mathglot (talk) 05:59, 15 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

I see it. Sorry that I talked myself into thinking it was the wrong answer, would have saved you some time :c. – 2804:F14:80C6:A301:CF7:6618:2E02:A732 (talk) 06:04, 15 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
Oh, how nice you still found this. It's my own damn fault. If I'd read the EXPENSIVE page with less haste, I would've seen it mentioned there. Still, it was kind of a fun exercise, going to Special:LongPages and turning it into a test page for this. Probably should just file the whole question under No free lunch. (P.S., anything I could do to persuade you to get a free sign-in account? Would really be nice to find you, time and again.) Feel free to pop over to my UTP anytime. Thanks again!

The best I do to find my own edits is Special:Contribs/2804:F14::/32 (99% edits by me, although every once in a while it's an IPv4), but I haven't really felt the need to create an account :s.
Honestly the impression I've gotten in the last 2 days is that I'm editing too often...
And no problem, I enjoy the "figuring out random thing" part of things, even when that's finding it written somewhere. – 2804:F14:80C6:A301:CF7:6618:2E02:A732 (talk) 06:30, 15 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for that find-me tip. Sounds like we have a lot in common; no such thing as too often, although you may enjoy the humorous essay Wikipedia:Wikiholic. What level are you? I'm afraid to read too much of it; I might find out I'm ready for the 12-steps program. Cheers! Mathglot (talk) 06:37, 15 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
Same here, very few people seem to use my IP range for some reason. I tend to make minor edits anyway so using an account doesn't seem all that necessary. 178.120.4.49 (talk) 16:09, 15 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
